Windows 10: HP Pavilion TS 15 n-270nr How to boot to recovery partition?

I'm going to be honest this time. So, this er originally had Windows 8.1, but had bloatware.

This er is from Feb 28, 2014, as said from the BIOS born on date. After a year and a half, I did a clean install of Windows 10, but then clean installed Windows 8.1, as I wanted to go to the original OS. However, the recovery partition was missing, so I recovered it with Minitool Partition Wizard bootable. Then I cleaned installed Windows 8.1 on a partition after the recovery partition overwrote the Windows 8.1 partition. I had not touched this partition, and only did a Chkdsk on it.

Now, I want to factory reset from the partition after recovering the partition. The folders are not modified. There are a few .wim files, called boot.wim, found in D:\preload\FactoryUpdate, ESP.wim and install.wim, found in D:\preload, and winUCRD.wim, found in D:\recovery\WindowsRE. the rest are files needed for the partition to boot. I have tried booting from the wim files but no luck, only the UCRD one worked, but gave me an error message saying that the media wasn't compatible.


Help?

Help with HP System Recovery partition

I will try and cut this short:

So i have this HP pavilion DV5-1987 laptop, that came with windows vista home premium 32bit. A couple of months later i installed a 64bit version, and about a week ago i installed Windows 7 x64 RTM. Both installations was a fresh install on the C partition, leaving the recovery partition intact and alone.
Now i have regrettet and want the original os to be reinstalled. But it doesnt work.
The bios options does nothing, i press ESC to get to boot options, choose F11 for boot to recovery partition, and it goes straight to windows 7.
i search the internet for options and try these suggestions:
Mark drive D as active partition (the rec partition). it still boots to win 7.
boot to super grub from a boot cd, and press "AUTO MAGIC BOOTER" (something like that). it then shows me two identical "vista boot loader" to choose from, and both goes into win 7, and a third (other OS) that gives me and error and returns to grub loader.

there a several other suggestions but either they wont work in my scenario or are another iteration of what i have already tried.

So uh... help? please? if you need anymore information please ask.
